| 20090137347 | RETURN MACHINE FOR SPHERICAL GAMEBALLS AND TRANSPORT APPARATUS INCORPORATING THE SAME - The present disclosure relates to a basketball return machine which may be utilized with either a goal unit or a stand-alone basketball goal. Either or both of the basketball return machine and goal unit may be fixed in location or transportable. The machine collects basketballs that are shot in the direction of a basketball goal and returns them to the user at one or more locations around the return machine's perimeter. The present disclosure eliminates the need for persons or other means being deployed to capture and return balls to persons practicing or playing a game of basketball. The present disclosure also contemplates features that permit its use in low level light or even unlighted environments. Lastly, the present disclosure contemplates a fully functional basketball system that is adaptable to varying user skill levels. | 05-28-2009 |

| 20110129818 | ASSAY FOR CARDIAC TROPONIN-T (cTnT) - The present disclosure describes immunoassays for detecting cardiac troponin-T (cTnT) in a test sample, and in particular immunoassays and kits for detecting cTnT in a test sample suspected of containing substances that may interfere with the determination of cTnT, such as heterophilic endogenous antibodies and autoantibodies to cTnT. The methods use more than one capture phase antibody and more than one detection antibody to improve specificity, and provide for the use of humanized immunoreagents to overcome heterophilic antibody interferences. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110129854 | ASSAY FOR DIAGNOSIS OF CARDIAC MYOCYTE DAMAGE - Assays are disclosed for diagnosing a clinical condition, assessing risk or predicting an outcome as a result of cardiac myocyte damage. Immunoassay methods and kits provide for the assessment of cardiac myocyte damage by determining the presence of multiple cardiac myocyte antigens in a test sample, and combining the multiple determinations in a single assay result. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110136103 | AUTOANTIBODY ENHANCED IMMUNOASSAYS AND KITS - The present disclosure provides immunoassays and kits for detection or quantification of an analyte of interest in a test sample that potentially contains endogenously produced autoantibodies reactive with the analyte. | 06-09-2011 |
